She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, practicing in New York and brings six years of clinical experience to her work.

How Simone works
Simone also helps people who feel isolated or struggle with communication, life purpose, and developing self-love. Her approach blends practical strategies and supportive conversation so clients can try things between sessions. Simone’s background includes work in college counseling centers, school settings, church and community programs, and independent practice.
That mix helped her learn to adapt methods to everyday life. She emphasizes respect, warmth, and steady support during difficult moments. Her work draws on person-centered ideas, cognitive-behavioral tools, mindfulness, and skills from dialectical behavioral approaches.
Simone treats each person as the expert on their life and focuses on clear, shared goals. Sessions are collaborative and tailored to what the client needs right now. She aims to help people gain clearer perspective and practical ways to feel better day to day.
Simone encourages small, manageable steps and supports clients as they try new ways of coping and communicating.

How Simone’s Approaches Work Online
Simone uses a mix of person-centered listening and practical behavioral tools to support change. Person-centered work focuses on listening, respect, and warmth so people can talk through what matters most. Cognitive-behavioral techniques look at thoughts and actions and offer concrete exercises to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.She also draws on mindfulness practices and dialectical behavioral skills to help manage strong emotions and improve moment-to-moment focus. Mindfulness teaches simple attention skills that reduce overwhelm. Dialectical behavioral elements supply coping skills for regulating emotions and handling difficult interactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Simone will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels helpful, then adapt methods collaboratively. The plan evolves as progress is seen and new challenges come up.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer quick written exchanges and flexible ways to stay connected between longer sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, school, and family obligations.
